Overview

Imaging with chest x-rays remains the gold standard of diagnosis when supported with other lab findings but it is recommended that, apart from x-ray findings, the entire clinical picture be taken into consideration before treatment is started.[1] Patterns commonly found on imaging include lobar or focal nonsegmental pneumonia, lobular or multifocal bronchopneumonia pneumonia, and diffuse or interstitial pneumonia.[2]
